Teresa’s photo of Lesnes Abbey wins selection for Commons calendar

A photograph of Lesnes Abbey taken by Teresa has been selected for the2011 House Magazine calendar to represent the month of September. The popular calendar is sent to MPs, Peers and lobby groups across Westminster.

The photograph, entitled ‘Three Ages’, shows the ruins of Lesnes Abbey, high rise buildings and a wind turbine all in the one shot. It was taken last year by Teresa on a weekend photography walk of Lesnes Abbey run by a lottery-funded group.

Teresa said:

“I’m really pleased my photo of Lesnes Abbey has been chosen for the House Magazine calendar and will be on walls in offices across Westminster this September.

“Rather than enter a holiday snap, I thought it would be a good opportunity to promote Erith and Thamesmead.

“The photo shows the history of the local area through the Abbey ruins as well as how the landscape has changed in more recent years.”
